Oh, how the Left hates it when the Designated Targets actually shoot back.

It's not as if Hollywood has made movies and TV shows that push the Hard Left narrative of anti-capitalism, America is the root of all evil, fathers are a bad influence, private property is the real Original Sin, the US military is mostly about enriching the bourgeois at the expense of poor innocents who hate us because we deserve it, women are victims, minorities are victims, homosexuals are an ethnic group, abortion is a sacrament...

The left lies and claim the truth as rightwing propaganda.

Well could it be that we are seeing the starts of a “backlash” against the left for a change?

One more piece of evidence that the left consider Hollywood their property where no dissent is permitted.

When was the last time Hollywood made a film that depicted the dad as anything but a clownish, cowardly fool?

The movie is scandalously blinkered.

Compared to what? The gazillion other Hollywood movies out there based on scripted left-wing wet dreams?

I thought it was funny.

But I’ve been arguing online with liberals since almost the turn of the century. I laugh at them a lot. They don’t think like we do.

Seriously.

LOL!
I was thinking the same thing. I don't like to go out to see movies anymore. Also the movie ads look pretty lousy ('baby' this and 'baby' that). But given that this leftist America hater is against the movie - I probably should see it (groan)...

Agreed. That monologue was hilarious for anyone who had a sense of humor. And Eastwood didn't read it off a teleprompter.

Yeah, it might have been delivered a little smother if he'd had a speechwriter do it for him, but the main reason the crowd loved it was because it was authentically spontaneous.

Who cares what this dickhead says? When American Sniper opens tomorrow, it instantly will become the most popular movie in America.
